El Salvador President Nayib Bukele has cast aside allegations that Kilmar Abrego Garcia was beaten and subject to psychological torture in a Salvadoran prison.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was severely beaten, deprived of sleep and subjected to psychological torture at an El Salvador mega-prison after he was wrongly deported from the US by the Trump administration,

At the notorious CECOT prison, he was forced to frog-march, had to kneel from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. and was subjected to beatings and threats, his lawyers said Wednesday.
